Golf in the Laurel Highlands

Enjoy some tee time on award-winning golf courses

Laurel Highlands golf courses were designed to accent the views of the Allegheny Mountains and Pennsylvania rolling hills that accompany them. Each golf course and resort boasts special and unique touches, making the possibilities for your golfing excursion endless. One thing they all have in common is great golf, but most also feature fantastic restaurants onsite or nearby and overnight accommodations. This makes it so you’re never far from the action and gives you plenty of time to explore the rest of the Laurel Highlands before or after golfing.

Be sure to browse golf packages that pair the best of the Laurel Highlands golfing with nearby Laurel Highlands hotels, restaurants and attractions. You don't want to leave the region without exploring!

The Birthplace of a Legend

Tiffani Nieusma, Laurel Valley Golf Club Statue, Ligonier

Laurel Highlands golfers have the rare opportunity to play on the very same greens that Arnold Palmer played. The SpringHill Suites by Marriott Pittsburgh-Latrobe, located on Arnold Palmer Drive in Latrobe, offers an exclusive stay and play package that includs golfing at the private Latrobe Country Club. Guests can drive, pitch and putt on the course where Palmer learned the game from his father. Guests can also view memorabilia from his amateur and professional golfing careers, making it a golfing experience that you’ll never forget.

The Laurel Highlands is also home to the very first course designed by Arnold Palmer, “Arnie’s First” at Indian Lake Golf Club. This spectacular 18-hole course with a 6,700 yard layout has Arnie written all over it.
